Jeremiah 27
1 When Zedekiah, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, first became king this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,
No principio do reinado de Joaquim, filho de Josias, rei de Judah, veiu esta palavra a Jeremias da parte do Senhor, dizendo:
2 This is what the Lord has said to me: Make for yourself bands and yokes and put them on your neck;
Assim me disse o Senhor: Faze umas prisões e jugos, e pôl-os-has sobre o teu pescoço.
3 And send them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the children of Ammon, and to the king of Tyre, and to the king of Zidon, by their servants who come to Jerusalem, to Zedekiah, king of Judah;
E envia-os ao rei de Edom, e ao rei de Moab, e ao rei dos filhos de Ammon, e ao rei de Tyro, e ao rei de Sidon, pela mão dos mensageiros que veem a Jerusalem a ter com Zedekias, rei de Judah.
4 And give them orders to say to their masters, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Say to your masters,
E lhes darás ordens, que digam aos seus senhores: Assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos, o Deus d'Israel: Assim direis a vossos senhores:
5 I have made the earth, and man and beast on the face of the earth, by my great power and by my outstretched arm; and I will give it to anyone at my pleasure.
Eu fiz a terra, o homem, e os animaes que estão sobre a face da terra, pela minha grande potencia, e com o meu braço estendido, e a dou áquelle que me agrada nos meus olhos.
6 And now I have given all these lands into the hands of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, my servant; and I have given the beasts of the field to him for his use.
E agora eu já dei todas estas terras na mão de Nabucodonozor, rei de Babylonia, meu servo: e ainda até os animaes do campo lhe dei, para que o sirvam.
7 And all the nations will be servants to him and to his son and to his son's son, till the time comes for his land to be overcome: and then a number of nations and great kings will take it for their use.
E todas as nações o servirão a elle, e a seu filho, e ao filho de seu filho, até que tambem venha o tempo da sua propria terra: então muitas nações e grandes reis se servirão d'elle.
8 And it will come about, that if any nation does not become a servant to this same Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, and does not put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, then I will send punishment on that nation, says the Lord, by the sword and need of food and by disease, till I have given them into his hands.
E será que a nação e o reino que o não servirem, a saber, a Nabucodonozor, rei de Babylonia, e que não pozerem o seu pescoço debaixo do jugo do rei de Babylonia, com espada, e com fome, e com peste visitarei a tal nação, diz o Senhor, até que a consuma pela sua mão.
9 And you are not to give attention to your prophets or your readers of signs or your dreamers or those who see into the future or those who make use of secret arts, who say to you, You will not become servants of the king of Babylon:
E vós não deis ouvidos aos vossos prophetas, e aos vossos adivinhos, e aos vossos sonhos, e aos vossos agoureiros, e aos vossos encantadores, que vos fallam, dizendo: Não servireis ao rei de Babylonia.
10 For they say false words to you, so that you may be sent away far from your land, and so that you may be forced out by me and come to destruction.
Porque mentiras vos prophetizam, para vos mandarem para longe da vossa terra, e eu vos lance d'ella, e vós pereçaes.
11 But as for that nation which puts its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon and becomes his servant, I will let that nation keep on in its land, farming it and living in it, says the Lord.
Porém a nação que metter o seu pescoço sob o jugo do rei de Babylonia, e o servir, eu a deixarei na sua terra, diz o Senhor, e lavral-a-ha e habitará n'ella.
12 And I said all this to Zedekiah, king of Judah, saying, Put your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon and become his servants and his people, so that you may keep your lives.
E fallei com Zedekias, rei de Judah, conforme todas estas palavras, dizendo: Mettei os vossos pescoços no jugo do rei de Babylonia, e servi-o, a elle e ao seu povo, e vivereis.
13 Why are you desiring death, you and your people, by the sword, and because food is gone, and by disease, as the Lord has said of the nation which does not become the servant of the king of Babylon?
Porque morrerias tu e o teu povo, á espada, e á fome, e de peste, como o Senhor já disse da gente que não servir ao rei de Babylonia?
14 And you are not to give ear to the prophets who say to you, You will not become servants of the king of Babylon: for what they say is not true.
E não deis ouvidos ás palavras dos prophetas, que vos fallam, dizendo: Não servireis ao rei de Babylonia: porque vos prophetizam mentiras.
15 For I have not sent them, says the Lord, but they are saying what is false in my name, so that I might send you out by force, causing destruction to come on you and on your prophets.
Porque não os enviei, diz o Senhor, e prophetizam no meu nome falsamente, para que eu vos lance fóra, e pereçaes, vós e os prophetas que vos prophetizam.
16 And I said to the priests and to all the people, This is what the Lord has said: Give no attention to the words of your prophets who say to you, See, in a very little time now the vessels of the Lord's house will come back again from Babylon: for what they say to you is false.
Tambem fallei aos sacerdotes, e a todo este povo, dizendo: Assim diz o Senhor: Não deis ouvidos ás palavras dos vossos prophetas, que vos prophetizam, dizendo: Eis que os vasos da casa do Senhor agora cedo voltarão de Babylonia, porque vos prophetizam mentiras.
17 Give no attention to them; become servants of the king of Babylon and keep yourselves from death: why let this town become a waste?
Não lhes deis ouvidos, servi ao rei de Babylonia, e vivereis: porque se tornaria esta cidade em deserto?
18 But if they are prophets, and if the word of the Lord is with them, let them now make request to the Lord of armies that the vessels which are still in the house of the Lord and in the house of the king of Judah and at Jerusalem, may not go to Babylon.
Porém, se são prophetas, e se ha palavras do Senhor com elles, orem agora ao Senhor dos Exercitos, para que os vasos que ficaram de resto na casa do Senhor, e na casa do rei de Judah, e em Jerusalem não venham a Babylonia.
19 For this is what the Lord has said about the rest of the vessels which are still in this town,
Porque assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos ácerca das columnas, e do mar, e das bases, e do resto dos vasos que ficaram de resto na cidade,
20 Which Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, did not take away, when he took Jeconiah, the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, a prisoner from Jerusalem to Babylon, with all the great men of Judah and Jerusalem;
Que Nabucodonozor, rei de Babylonia, não tomou, quando transportou de Jerusalem para Babylonia a Jechonias, filho de Joaquim, rei de Judah, como tambem a todos os nobres de Jerusalem;
21 For this is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said about the rest of the vessels in the house of the Lord and in the house of the king of Judah and at Jerusalem:
Assim pois diz o Senhor dos Exercitos, o Deus d'Israel, ácerca dos vasos que ficaram de resto na casa do Senhor, e na casa do rei de Judah, e em Jerusalem:
22 They will be taken away to Babylon, and there they will be till the day when I send their punishment on them, says the Lord. Then I will take them up and put them back in their place.
A Babylonia serão levados, e ali ficarão até ao dia em que os visitarei, diz o Senhor: então os farei subir, e os tornarei a trazer a este logar.
